alarm system?
#3
I'm trying to decide between Compustar and Clifford.
The quotes I got are pretty much the same..
(obviously compustar is little more)
Could people who have already experienced in these give any inputs/opinions?
Thank you~

I've heard people with compustar having problems, but I can't remember what. I reserched this a few months ago and decided on the viper. It's a great alarm, but the range doesn't seem to be that great UNLESS there's absolutely no obstruction between you and the car.

i've installed dozens of alarm/remote start before, and i like compustar the most. it is more expensive but it's worth it i think. viper is more user friendly, but it only come with one remote and the remote breaks easily (on the last year's version anyway). i've recently installed 2 autopage 860 and i think they're great. i now have compustar 2w900 on both my TSX and my Civic for over a year now without any problem.

Im holding out for the Clifford Intelleguard 5.5x which made its debut at the 2005 CES. No word yet on its released, even though dealers already recieved lit and brochures on it. Nothing mentioned on Clifford's website either.

BTW: I have Cliffords on all my families cars. TSX, Civic, Tahoe, 7 Accords, E430, Teg, NSX, Navigator, VW Bug, 540, 328.... no problems with any of them. Ive used various models from thier entire lineup, Intelleguard and Matrix series. Solaris series as well.
I have 2 spare Clifford Solaris alarms NIB for sale if anyone is interested.

I was also looking at the Matrix series as well..3.5 or something.
and for the Compustar...AS? the new 2way with remote starter.
I don't want to have huge chunky remote in my pocket.
And What is the 'issue' that some people have it on Compustar??

Meh.... stuff like this has been out like 3 years ago using the spread spectrum stuff. The ones iv'e seen have a color display too and a vibrate mode in case it's in your pocket and you can't hear it.

but I'll have to see the spec of it first before I purchase it..
There are colour LCDs, Vibrate modes, Picture taking etc
on Upcoming new products and this 5.5 seems to be a little late in terms of technology.
But I love the navigation wheel button on the side..I really like about that...

If so, what's the name of the auto shop you went to, to have your alarm installed.
Wow I was thinking of have this same alarm installed. this makes me nervous
